Tribute

I have always been a poet.
But, I didn't always know
the feelings welled inside me
would onto paper flow
in a language, mine alone,
that another heart would know.

All life's joyous celebrations
and the saddness of our plight
did spring so freely from me
while writing late at night.
But, this I counted foolish
and kept safetly out of sight.

Then Lacey called me Poet!
But how was I to know.
He told my mind a secret.
My heart had thought it so.
I have always been a Poet,
but I didn't always know.
